Louise looks after my 3 little girls. I have a daughter age 3 and 2 year old twins. They absolutely love going to lulu's. one of my twins has social and communication difficulties which was such a concern for me as I was worried she would not settle in any other environment. She does not like new people and will never let other people near her but I have been shocked at how well she has took to Louise. She even cuddles her. Louise is patient and great with children and she has earned my daughters trust. I would high recommend her. My other girls love her and also love her husband Roy. I am so glad I picked them for my girls.

Lulu has looked after our son for about a year and when our family decided to move abroad we were all devastated to have to take him out of her care.
Our little one started at Lulu's when he was a year old and during the 12 months in her care he developed into an independent and active toddler with great social skills, imagination and an advanced vocabulary. A lot of this is due to Lulu's unwavering passion, energy and commitment to child development, and her determination to expose children to so many different activities and experiences, from painting and pottery to gardening, water play, music and even circus events.
Aside from his development, our son absolutely adored Lulu and we are immensely grateful to her for her unreserved support during the last 12 months, for always providing good advice and for just being a loving human being when our son needed one.
I know it will be very hard, if not impossible to replace Lulu in our new home abroad, but I am sure that my son will benefit from all these learnings and the bond he created with her for years to come.

My little boy has been with Lu and Roy from the age of 10 months to almost 3 years old.
They provided a safe, loving and educational environment for Aiden and he really enjoyed going there.
He was always surrounded by both younger and older kids which I loved.
Lu and Roy take them to loads of play groups, parks and adventures and make an effort to show them new experiences.
Their home is set out like a pre-school with a brilliant play room and garden with more than enough entertainment. They really go all out to make sure their little ones are happy and developing.
They provide home cooked food and my little one loves it! He eats much better there than at home! Salmon and broccoli? There's no way I could get him to eat that!
Lu provides regular updates on their progress and raises any issues quickly, working together with parents to help.
Lu and Roy have become part of the family and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them as childminders.

I is coming up to my last week with this family , and it's hard to think that he won't be knocking on my door every morning ,lifting up my letter box and saying "Lulu I here "
I will miss him , his laugh , his lovely little face when I tell him how good he is .
He has been a pleasure to care for .
Lu and Roy are brilliant with Aiden. They give him loads of love, help him with his development by providing lots of stimulation and opportunity to learn. Their house is very safe and comfortable for Aiden with a brilliant play room and outside area. They are constantly busy with different play groups and activities and kids coming and going which Aiden loves.
Lu and Roy provide Aiden with a variety of foods.
As Aiden gets older he is constantly challenged and allowed to develop at his own pace and Lu updates me with what is happening.
I would really recommend them! Once you meet them you'll love them as much as us.

I have used ABC Lulu Kiddies Club recently in emergency child care situation. My daughter is 10 years old and she was really happy to spend the day with Lulu. They had plenty of activities for her. I was really happy for the fact that even though it was an emergency during summer holiday they were helpful. Thank you again for everything. Leda really enjoyed the day at your house.

Our son has been with Louise and Roy since April. We chose Louise and Roy after meeting a lot of childcare providers. We needed someone who would adapt to his vivacious personality whilst being able to effectively manage his severe food allergies. From the outset Louise and Roy exuded warmth and showed him a lot of loving. They have never been fazed by his problems.
They take him for regular activities and keep him busy through the day. They have been very understanding to our needs as working parents and help in any way they can.
Louise and Roy have been very receptive to all our suggestions and helped us in improving his feeding difficulties. We get a daily report on how he has done, and having updates through the day is very reassuring.
We know our son is very happy, well loved and well taken care of. I am able to go to work in peace knowing he is in safe hands.

We are Yorkshire based and had to attend a medical appointment in London with our oldest child. We required a child-minder for our younger child for 8 hours. Our child is profoundly autistic so we were very concerned. We arrived at a lovely home with an amazing atmosphere and were surrounded by happy children. I felt absolutely confident in leaving my little boy with Lulu. She had wisely requested information on my son beforehand so she knew his needs and was prepared. This is very reassuring as a parent of a child with additional needs. I would highly rec this child minder without a doubt. In fact, so difficult it is to find a carer to look after my son, I think we are going to move to Kent!

I have had a working relationship with Louise and Roy since 2011 when my daughter (now nearly 9) first was cared for by Louise.
They have looked after my daughter for the majority of the time since and in the last year they have become full carers in the daytime to my son (now 21 months.)
Roy and Louise have provided a safe and child friendly environment.
There is adequate gating throughout the house to keep the children safe and the utilisation of the back room as a play area plus dining area.
The meals retain a high standard.
Home work is enforced for older children and is performed at the tables.
The garden is also secure and child friendly.
It is important to note that they have invested in the children with the updating equipment and furniture so everything remains in good repair.
They both instil respect in all the children which makes for a good dynamic in the group and all the children care about each other.
If my children have an accident I am informed correctly.
As a parent I know my children are well provided and cared for

I have used ABC Lulu Kiddies Club on both a permanent basis and more recently in emergency child care situations (such as school industrial action days). I find the standard of care that my children (now 12, 7 and 4years old) have received over the years to be excellent and of a very high quality. They always have plenty of activities for all ages and have never been unhappy while there. I hope to be able to use ABC Lulu Kiddies Club for many years to come.

Lulu has been picking up and dropping off my son from school for two years. She has dealt brilliantly with his tantrums and gave me some helpful hints too! My job requires me to work on different days some weeks and she has been flexible and really accommodating.
Oh yeah, she makes great cakes too!!:-)
